Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Caffe Parma is about the easiest and most sensible way to enjoy the taste of espresso, without any fuss. Though,perhaps, not considered true espresso because the bar pressure may be considered too low by afficionados, this steam powered maker delivers the essence of what espresso is like and provides a deeper, richer, and more satisfying experience to the avid coffee drinker. Convenient top-fill water tank Large removable drip tray for easy clean-up Espresso filter, espresso tamper, and measuring spoon are all included

2 out of 5 stars Espresso Maker   April 13, 2008
Ruzena Kovacic
This product was re-furbished and came in a bit dirty. It's easy to use and makes espresso quick but the steam wand is terrible. It does not make the milk hot and does not let out enough steam.


2 out of 5 stars Not as good as expected   April 1, 2008
Bilal A. Khan (Brooklyn NY USA)
I bought the machine mainly for cappuccino. But the pressure of steam is really pathetic and it goes away after 5-10 seconds.There was no seperate system for steam. I had to return it.

This is a nice looking Espresso Maker. The problem I found with it is the steamer is made of a flimsy plastic and I thought it was going to break every time I used it. It is not in the right place on the machine to be able to steam a cup of milk. I would not purchase this machine again.


5 out of 5 stars My First Espresso Machine   February 9, 2008
Randell Hartlage (Tallahassee,FL)
This is my first experience with an Espresso machine but this little gadget has been well worth the modest price I spent for it. Critics are right that the frothing arm is a little short...but investing in a small 20 oz. stainless steel frothing pitcher seems to do the trick. Add a stainless steel coffee tamper, some Espresso and Cappuccino cups and you are in business. I have impressed even some of my "coffee snob friends". I'd recommend this unit especially to novices like me...then you can decide if you really need a $1,000+ machine. For now I'm just tickled with my $44.95 DeLonghi unit.

Worked well, but hard to find a cup that would fit under the foam nozzle. Otherwise a good buy.
